In a job today me and my colleague where discussing whether or not we had to earth the incoming water. It comes in blue pipe as you can see from the photos. I haven't got my regs book to hand but in the regs book it said that it doesn't need bonding if the water comes in blue pipe.
See photo.
We are going back tomorrow or this week so we will make a decision then on whether or not to bond it. What's your opinions?
Also the photo of the bonding done to the boiler is just there to show that the pipes are bonded. Just not the incoming water. Thanks.

A decent plumber could say the same about some of our trade's rubbish though, fred.
Yes indeed, in almost exactly the same way! We have also gone from professional rigid screwed steel pipework to plastic, soldered joints to push fit, and formed bends to flexible pipe too.
